A programming note for every Nuggets fan that wants to trade for Bogdan Bogdanovic if KCP walks in free agency:
It would have to be a 3-for-1 trade. Bogdanovic ($17.2 mil) makes too much money for Zeke ($8.89 mil) and Reggie ($5.25 mil) to work.

If the 76ers are out on Paul George, that doesn’t feel like great news regarding the Nuggets keeping Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. Philly has always been viewed as the top threat to poach KCP — they’re the one “contender” with big cap room. – 7:10 PM

Heading into free agency, there’s also concern that guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope could decline his $15.44 million player option, enter unrestricted free agency, and land a potential short-term offer for a higher salary annually comparable to Bruce Brown’s previous two-year, $45 million deal with Indiana. -via HoopsHype / June 15, 2024
